Be it known-.that I, ALBERT C. MOORE., a citizenof the'United States,residingat Victor,- 'in thegcou'n'tyof Somerset and State of .Maryland,have linwented acertain new and vuseful'"Irnp'rovemen't in Curling-Ironsand Heaters Therefor, of which thefollowing is a 'l y 1- speciication.nr

' I e. My invention relate ro vimprovement: in curling= tetti and usefulirons and heaters -the1efm a.ne has for its-Objectis@ 'provide anexceedingly simple and eiective arrangement vf this description whichwill comprise a curl-1 ing-.iron the handle -of which, serves'as aholder. fora larnp, the latter being so constructedas to'beV withdrawnfrom the handle and utilized as; a support for the 'curling-ironwhile,heatingv the same.` c

With .this endinj view lthis invention consists .in the details ofconstruction and lcombination of elements hereinafter set forth and thenspecifically designated by the claim. In order that those skilled in theart to which 4this 'invention appertains may understand ings, formingWhich-t-k proved device, showingalam-p within the` how to make and usethe same', the construetion and operation willfnoW-be described indetail', referring to the accompanying' drawa part of thisspecification, in

other escape of the liquid.A Avsocket H is formed upon the side of thebody and is adapt-A of the lamp, so that when the latter is placed-within the hollow handle this flange will close the opening in saidhandle andl be held in place by the snap-spring K engaging with saidflange. When the lamp is to beplaced within the handle, the support I isreversed, so that itscurved forked end will turn inward', andthuseasilylpass within the chamberD.'

From this description itwill be scenthat to' heat the curling-iron it isonlyinecessary to 1J remove the'lamptherefrom, reverse the sup@ port I,'and adjust it at the height which will 'readily hold the iron in properrelation to the flame, and byl lighting the wick L the iron will beheated and may be used in the ordinarymanner. 'When the iron is out ofuse, the sup-A "Y port is again reversed-and placed within thehandle,jafter which my improved device may be packed, so as to be easilytransported.

' In practice this device is exceedingly convenient'for persons who-aret1ave1ing, as it is always ready'for *use and occupesbut little Sov-I.Of course vI do not wish tobeliniited tothe` f. exact,details hereshown, as v,these may be variedwith'out departing' @from the spirit ofspaev in storage.
